What happens when a substance is melting or boiling
-You are putting in … so you are … the internal energy
-the energy is used for … bonds rather than raising the …
-You are putting in energy so you are increasing the internal energy
-the energy is used for breaking bonds rather than raising the temperature
What happens when a substance is condensing or freezing
-bonds are … between particles which releases energy so the … energy …
-the t… does not go down until the substance has fully … into a liquid or … into a solid
-bonds are forming between particles which releases energy so the internal energy decreases
-the temperature does not go down until the substance has fully condensed into a liquid or frozen into a solid
